proved such success, was brought out
in the san city, the following frem
the Pittsburg Dispatch can be taken,
coming from good authority. 1t says:
"a bran new comedy, portrayed byla
first-elass company, light, we'll dressed,

Gle SO complete success 1as
was secured last night. This,
the second act, with its realistic snow
effects, terminating with the toboggan

Mr.. Mestayer for the debut of new
comedy, '''The Tourists" We are we'll
aware of its great success. and we have
no hesitation in saying that "Toboggan-

far better acted than any of his former
productions.
The sharp wit and brilliant satire of
the bank defaulterS and anglOmaniacs

THE HANLoNS.
The Hanlons will present "Le Voyage
en- Suisse" at the Hennepin Avenue
theater this week, and it is said the
laughable travesty is better than ever.
1t has just made great hit at Milwau-

fault to be found with his performance
is the fact of his occasional prolonged
absence from the stage. Ed Edwards
is an able second to Mr.. Hanlon in
the character of Bob, and has one or

Wilson's Ned is refreshingly easy nat

you can't help but like immensely.
Messrs. Butler, Jones and Reilly, and
the charming Hanlon children add to
the general enjoyment.
